Can not activate security audit

Former Member — Tue, 03 Oct 2006 20:09:56 GMT

Hi,

I have changed the profile parameters in order to collect the audit files in a different directory than the default one. After I have restarted the server I got "Not active because of an error" in sm19 screen. I have removed the settings for the profile parameters and restarted the server. I got the same error. I am sure that the profile parameters are set as default. I have checked the audit status and noticed that the file status is 5. That is a "file open error".

why i get this error in the default log directory?

thanks,

Hi,

I believe you are referring to the audit log and the parameters

rsau/enable = 1 (0 is default, 1 to enable)

rsau/SQL-Audit/filename = SQL_++++++++.AUD

rsau/SQL-Audit/logdit = /usr/sap/IT1/DVEBMGS00/log

Above parameters are from NetWeaver 2004s, in older versions they might be different.

to me it seems like the logdir parameter is not correct ... I expect you have configured and activated a filter in SM19!?
